Paneer Bhurji (Indian Scrambled Paneer)

Ingredients

• •400 g paneer, crumbled
• •1 small onion, finely chopped
• •2 tomatoes, chopped
• •1 green chili, minced
• •1/2 tsp turmeric
• •1 tsp cumin
• •2 tbsp cilantro, chopped
• •1 tbsp neutral oil

Directions

1. 1Heat the oil and add the cumin. Wait until the seeds darken and smell toasted.
2. 2Add the onion and green chili and fry six minutes until the edges colour.
3. 3Add the tomatoes and turmeric with a good pinch of salt.
4. 4Cook eight minutes until the tomato breaks down and the oil separates at the edges.
5. 5Fold in the crumbled paneer and warm through for two minutes only.
6. 6Take off the heat, stir in the cilantro, and serve.

💡 Two minutes is the whole cooking time for the paneer. Longer and it squeaks and goes rubbery instead of staying soft.
